The Ministry of Irrigation and Lowlands (MILLs) signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the United Nations Project Services Office (UNOPs)

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with #UNOPs. This historic agreement was entered into by H.E. Aisha Mohammed Mussa (Eng.), (Minister of Irrigation and Lowlands), and Mrs. Worknesh Mekonnen (Director, Ethiopia Multi-Country Office and UNOPs Representative to AU). This collaboration will pave the way for transformative development in the Ethiopian Lowlands, unlocking the untapped resources and ushering in a new era of prosperity and opportunity. Both teams will work hand in hand to mobilize resources for technical assistance, conducting comprehensive feasibility studies, pilots, and scaleups. These initiatives are crucial in identifying and capitalizing on the vast potential of the Ethiopian Lowlands. Both #MILLs and UNOPS share a common vision that the Ethiopian Lowlands are lands of immense opportunity, not scarcity.

Together, we are determined to harness these abundant resources and drive forward the development of our lowlands, with a special focus on irrigation to ensure a flourishing future for our communities.
